Setup Missions

You get some setup missions in this version of the game because you have to get ready to make the heist work. You have to be just as clever as the people who would pull off this heist in real time, and you need to make sure that all the setup work has been done right. If you have done all that work to make the game more fun, and you need to be sure that you have done them all right or the final mission will be harder. Yes, you might get there, but you might not be able to do it as well as you would have liked. This effectively lowers your score, and it could cause problems as you try to get through the mission.

You Get New Vehicles

They all drive different, and you have to be sure you know how to drive is properly before you get going.

Finding New Assets

You also have to make sure that you have found all the things that you need for the missions you plan to take. These missions are going to help you get all the gear that is needed, and if you do not get all that you need, you will not have as much fun in the final story/mission.
